It's quite good, though its starting to be annoying how Sango always seems to be sick or in a state of emotional collapse. Ater all, this is a woman who clawed her way out of her own grave pretty much on strength of will alone...

Why? I'm normally a Sess/Kag fan but something about the summary and pairing caught my interest. I'm glad I read it. The plot is very original. I like how you used the equinox to bring back Bankotsu. He was such a violent figure and to show this side of him is heartwarming. You bring out their raw emotions and silent sufferings with such talent as a writer. I don't think you abandoned this story through boredom, but for another reason. Please return and finish it. It deserves a finish. For one thing, you've turned me into a Bankotsu fan. I've always liked Sango being paired with someone besides Miroku. I don't dislike him, just that I get tired of them always being paired. I plan to check on this story from time to time just in case you decide to update it.

I know how hard it is to get the ideas down grammatically correct and all. I am so glad you didn't abandon us your loyal readers. I loved the comical parts in this chapter and look forward to more.

It really isn't TOO farfetched. Both of the are warriors, after all. Of course, Bankotsu WAS a type of serial killer.....so maybe they aren't THAT similar. But this is still a good pairing, LOL. The way you took Miroku out of the equation was brilliant, and I relly like that you are letting Sango truly go throught the grief process, instead of just throwing she and Bankotsu together. All of this emotion gives the two of them the opportunity to build a real relationship, so I really like your pacing. Only thing is....it's been an awfully long time since Kagome or Inuyasha checked on Sango. Since they were so concerned about her living on her own with just her son, it seems like an awfully long time has passed without somebody checking on her. I know Kagome has apparently just had her own baby not too long ago. But I would still think that at least Inuyasha would take a day trip to check on her after that hard winter. And, honestly, I just can't wait until Inuyasha and Bankotsu meet up. That is going to be an interesting (and fun) confrontation, I'm quite sure. I just hope that Kagome is around to rein Inuyasha in somewhat, LOL. Anyway, I realize this is an insanely long review, so I'm shutting up now ^__^ . I am definitely enjoying your story, and I hope to read more soon.

But the reason I like it so much is because it is simply so fresh. I have never seen another story like this even remotley, and while that may be simply because I haven't, not because they aren't out there, I doubt it. I think that your story is really original, and I definatly can't wait for more!

Comment/Review: Now, normally I don't care for alternate pairings, but this one is quite refreshing and so is the plot line. You have a very descriptive and eloquent writing style, but I could care less for character digs like the girl was "passably pretty" just b/c you feel that Sango doesn't get enough attention in the fanfic realm. Yes, I know it's Bankotsu pov and all, but I've seen this pattern in your other fics, particularly the Kouga/Sango pairing ones. And let me make this perfectly clear, I do adore Sango and think she is a wonderful/beautiful/strong/intelligent (and any other positive trait-descriptive adjectives you can come up with) character. But I don't think you need to rip down another character or make her seem any less worthy/intelligent/beautiful, etc... to get your point across. We get that Banks is intrigued by the beautiful demon slayer as you've done a fine and nicely lemon-filled job of showing us. But please, demonstrating Kagome as Sango's equal (perhaps not in slayer training but in other respects) doesn't detract from Sango's character in any way. Sorry, but I just had to put my two cents in.

As much as I like the tradional Kag/Inu and San/Mir it gets kind of old and boring. This is a nice reminder that in fanfic anything goes. So is the baby really Miroku's??? Is it a reincarnation of Bankotsu??

Comment/Review: Sango and BANKO-BAKA?! EW! YOU'VE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME! First of he's dead - second off she's in love with Miroku - and third that made utterly no sense what so ever. Stop tampering with Takahashi-sama's work, non-canon lover person ;b
